Progress Report: January 2023 news

Hope the first month of 2023 has been good to you all! Let's get started!

OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL REMAKE

Much of the month of January has been focused on ironing out bugs from the initial build of the remade Operation: Knightfall mission. As the original author has been unable to complete this work, I volunteered to finish what he started. As of typing this report, the first of the gameplay levels has been completely ironed out and is at a quality we can deem to be finished.

Production on fixing up the next level has begun, with this level appearing to be the most complex to fix. Primarily we are introducing a small puzzle to the level and one boss fight has to be completely reworked.

SPOILERS FOR TALES OF THE JEDI BELOW

With the recent release of the Tales of the Jedi mini-series, we all learned the ultimate canonical fate for Jedi Master Yaddle (the female of Yoda's species). While Knightfall was in development, Yaddle's fate had not been confirmed, and though she was confirmed to have died between Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones in Legends, we felt that since Yaddle had no canonical fate that we would use her as a boss fight in Operation: Knightfall's remake. With the release of Tales of the Jedi, we are now having to completely remake the boss battle and use an entirely different character. We mentally prepared ourselves for this, so we will make our adjustments.

After all we don't want people going

END SPOILERS

We suspect that the remaining gameplay levels should be relatively easy to clean up and we're looking forward to bringing this mission to you all after years of promise.

ESCAPE FROM THEED

We've also teased over the past few years another mission which unfortunately has taken us a long time to deliver. Escape from Theed. Inspired by the Episode I video game, players will experience a re-imagining of Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Jar Jar Binks's infiltration in the now-occupied city of Theed. The author, Lwkill, reports that development on this mission is nearing completion. Similar to Operation: Knightfall, Escape From Theed will feature multiple gameplay levels.

NEW CHARACTERS

We have lined up a massive amount of new and updated characters to bring to the mod in the next update.

POSSIBLE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q: What are Unaligned Force Users?
A: Unaligned Force Users are a faction consisting of beings who use the Force, but primarily only serve themselves or are part of a faction that isn't currently expanded on.

Q: Why is Tenebrae listed under Ancient Sith Empire? Tenebrae, Vitiate, and Valkorion are the same person, so why aren't they variants?
A: I am currently debating on this, but Valkorion will likely remain. Please let me know your thoughts, I'd love to hear them.

Q: The Dread Masters left the Empire, why are they listed under them instead of their own?
A: The Dread Master's Empire, the Dread Host, primarily consisted of brainwashed Imperials and Sith of the Reconstituted Sith Empire. It didn't make too much sense to make a separate faction for them.

Q: Why is N-K Necrosis a variant of General Grievous rather than his own character?
A: He was made from Grievous's body and had no other affiliations. Wookieepedia claims that N-K Necrosis was affiliated with the Empire because of the scientist that created him, but N-K's existence canonically was too short-lived for him to have any meaningful affiliation.

Q: Why is Zsinj listed under Galactic Empire?
A: Because he was loyal to the Empire prior to making his own. Zsinj's empire would only consist of the Raptor Troopers and himself.

Q: Will Ninth Sister behave like the other Inquisitors?
A: Yes

Q: Why is Niles Ferrier listed under Imperial Remnant?
A: He worked with Thrawn in 9 ABY in the Legends continuity and is not listed on Wookieepedia as having any other affiliations (that he was loyal to).

Q: WHY TF ARE YOU ADDING ROSE TICO?!!!!! SHE'S THE WORST CHARACTER EVER!
A: Because we can

Q: Why are some SWTOR companions assigned to the Eternal Alliance but others aren't?
A: Some companions in SWTOR only join the Eternal Alliance depending on the character you're playing as. Only companion characters that are guaranteed to join would be assigned if we have their correct appearance. If we got Kira Carsen and Lord Scourge's appearances from the Onslaught expansion in SWTOR, they would be moved to Eternal Alliance. Lana Beniko is being moved from Reconstituted Sith Empire to Eternal Alliance for this reason.

Q: Why is Silri listed under Zann Consortium instead of Nightsisters?
A: Because she is a hero unit for the Zann Consortium and her only depiction is in Empire at War fighting for them.

Q: Rebel Friend is coming? Are we adding LEGO Characters now?
A: The Rebel Friend will not be LEGO. The author designed him to appear true to life.
